Porto Alegre is a lively city in the far south of Brazil, sitting beside a huge lake-like river. It is known for its cowboy-style traditions, grilled meats, and welcoming people.
You can watch a beautiful sunset over the water, stroll big riverside parks, and taste juicy barbecue cooked the southern way.
The south is home to gauchos, Brazilian cowboys who love horses, campfires, and sizzling barbecue.
The wide Guaiba waters give the city famous sunsets and long parks perfect for biking and walks.
